Little Rock Missionary Baptist Church, Detroit
I had seen the famed Abraham Lincoln stained glass window of Detroit’s Little Rock Missionary Baptist Church in a book. I hadn’t seen the window personally. I mentioned to a friend that I really wanted to see the window first-hand. To my utter surprise she told me that a mutual friend of ours could arrange it. Wow! Sure enough-I found my self at the church. It’s quite imposing on the outside-and most impressive. I wasn’t prepared for what I found on the inside. The main sanctuary was magnificent. I was stunned by the beauty of it all-nothing but absolutely gorgeous stained glass windows surrounding the whole sanctuary. Of course, I was there for a specific purpose-to see the Lincoln window. My friend-who also served as my escort-pointed to it. Unbelievable! There I was with my cheap little camera taking the best pictures I could. For your enjoyment, here are a few:

- Lincoln stained glass window

Thank you my friends! Also, thank you Little Rock Missionary Baptist Church for letting me gaze at that beautiful work of art!
